We are headed down the slippery slope. I have a feeling that in the coming years, Americans are going to wish they had paid closer attention in History.

You're much too late. We reached that tipping point in 1980, to the chants of "USA! USA! USA!" at an Olympic hockey game.

That’s how Rome started, isn’t it? One day the crowd in the Colosseum began chanting “SPQR! SPQR! SPQR!” and the next day Carthage is a smoking hole in the ground.

It’s almost eerie.

No, really, it is.
